On a cold day, the North is still in the coldest days, with news of the upcoming wet season, there is nothing better than packing your backpack and escaping the city, finding a relaxing feeling in the mountains and forests, while still resting. Suoi Bang, a hot spring in Kim Thuy commune, Le Thuy district (Quang Binh province) is a place for that.
Bang Spring (a hot spring in Chuon village, Kim Thuy commune, Le Thuy district, Quang Binh province) is located in the middle of the Truong Son mountain range, more than 50 km southwest of Dong Hoi city.
Ban Chuon in the resistance war against America is associated with the story of the Bru-Van Kieu people with the surname Ho who wholeheartedly followed the Party.
For many years, the hot spring with record heat quietly crept between the forest canopy. Until, people discovered that the hot spring that always emitted a thin layer of smoke had a boiling point of record level.
In 2023, Bang hot spring was officially recognized as the Record for the highest boiling point in Vietnam.
According to the 1993 State Mineral Water Project Survey Report of the Ministry of Water Resources, some of the spring's geysers have a measured boiling point of 105°C.
Boiling eggs at the source of Bang Spring is a special experience. There are many hot mineral springs that can cook eggs, but each source has a different boiling point, so the boiling time is also different.
Than Tai Mountain hot spring (Hoa Vang district, Da Nang city) has the highest boiling point of 75 degrees Celsius, it takes about 15 minutes to cook eggs.
Hoi Van hot spring (Phu Cat district, Binh Dinh province) has the highest boiling point of 85 degrees Celsius, it takes 10 minutes to boil an egg.
Triem Duc hot spring (Dong Xuan district, Phu Yen province), the highest boiling point is 70 degrees Celsius, it takes 20 minutes to boil an egg.
However, at Bang stream, with the boiling water temperature of over 100 degrees Celsius, it only takes 6-8 minutes for the egg to be cooked. If you want a soft-boiled egg, at the bubbling spring, it only takes 4-5 minutes.
Some other nearby hot springs also only take about 6 minutes. Interestingly, boiling eggs in different hot springs gives different results at the same time.
Although a resort with a Japanese-style mineral bath and onsen system has been built to serve mineral bathers since the end of 2023, the Bang spring source area is still kept for visitors to experience boiling eggs in the middle of nature.
Approaching the hot spring source area of Bang stream, one could see the smoke covering the area, the hot steam rising up hazily, just a gust of wind passing by and one could not see people's faces clearly.
At a time like this, sitting in the middle of the forest by a hot spring and trying a few boiled eggs, the gray sky and earth are not a big deal.
